BOARD INTERACTION
Multiplies the value of element-state cells already on the board. Does not create state.
ULT SIGNATURE
MENDING — full heal or board-state extension; restores the engine.
CHARGE COST
Medium-slow (period-based, ~12 placements).
THE CASCADE GRAMMAR
Warrior creates → Mage amplifies → Hunter detonates = damage cascade. Tank absorbs = team gets turns. Captain enables = multiplier + drops.
Every hero answers exactly one verb. Predictability is non-negotiable — variance lives in drop order, never in hero behavior.
5 elements × 1 role
One Mage per element — same verb, different element-state.
